So is it going to be like the old days where you have to stick around for a while to get Gold Member or what?

Seems you can't buy gold anymore. Oh well. Might be a thing you need to get after like 30,000 posts or some bollocks.
I was a lucky one to get gold when it came from post count of 2,000. The only thing I'd want back on boostar is buying titles for other members. I'm a-ok with Gold not being a pay-to-upgrade thing

But we don't know what the rules for getting gold are these days and from what I gather most golds don't use the GMF, so it seems fairly pointless to wait a long time for a gif avatar
Huzzah. Buying titles in general was a stinky idea. What a fuckin mess they made of things, from a design and attractiveness standpoint!
apparently they had to take down some of the upgrades due to spambots and advertisers
it also costs more to change your title now, used to be 2 bucks

Pretty sure it's always been $5, they went on sale for $2 a while back though
I got lucky because I bought gold when there was no post restriction.
I hope I don't get gold. I view my blue name as a term of endearment. (I was less than one month away from getting gold before garry changed the rules)

Yeah, it seems like Blue members are rarer then gold members.

you're trying to reverse psychology us aren't you
Let's make the blue member's forum

There was a sale, but I think it was $2 for yourself, $5 for other people as of last week. Not 100% sure though.
luckily someone bought me gold a month or two ago, and then I bought gold for a friend.
I got gold free without anyone buying me it. Fuck yeah.
We might as well not have titles anymore. Now it's just a shitty signature, and nobody wants that.
Remember when titles actually meant someone was somewhat important?

it depends on the size of the title imo
by that I mean little ones aren't an issue, but big attention grabbing ones are an eyesore
Good riddance. People abused the title system to advertise their communities on rival profiles, and it overall just caused a shit-ton of drama on the Garry's Mod forum. Yeah, thanks Conna.
Anyway.. Gold Membership should pop up every so often with a huge, "50 Gold Memberships!" and only 50 Gold memberships are able to be purchased, or have a lotto of sort where people raffle to become gold members. Would make things more interesting.
I sold Maxofs2d TF2 items for mine, way back in the day.

Now it's just about how much people hate you.

If anything, gold should be like it was before it was made purchase only. Be active for 2 years, have a certain amount of posts etc.
tbh i found my title hilarious after a while
so many pms
Buying other people titles should be locked to being around for a specific time, like a month or two. The good side of it is being able to have little inside jokes, and the bad side is having people spam or make titles that say "ignore my fucking posts because I'm hitler".
What the point Gold Members anyway?

Okay...
Well I'll get money for this?
Tbh, blue members are less common than golds. Especially ones as old as me.
